TaskRabbit kicks off Canadian expansion

2018-09-18T23:59:55Z - Kate Clark / TechCrunch

TaskRabbit officially launched in Canada today.
This is the first major move abroad for the company in some time, as well as its first move under IKEA’s ownership.
TaskRabbit first expanded beyond the U.S. in 2014, when it launched its app in the UK.
IKEA bought TaskRabbit 1 year ago as part of a deal that has allowed the company to operate independently from the Swedish furniture retailer under CEO Stacy Brown-Philpot.
TaskRabbit, before its exit, had raised $38 million from investors including Founders Fund, First Round Capital and Floodgate.
